Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- ¼ cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 tbsp melted butter or oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined to ensure even distribution of leavening agents and flavor.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the milk, large egg, creamy peanut butter, melted butter or oil, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and homogenous, ensuring the peanut butter is fully blended.
- Mix Batter: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir just until combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the pancakes tough; a few lumps are okay.
- Preheat Skillet or Griddle: Heat a greased skillet or griddle over medium heat to ensure even cooking and to prevent sticking.
- Cook Pancakes: Pour batter onto the skillet in desired portions. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, approximately 2-3 minutes.
- Flip Pancakes: Carefully flip each pancake with a spatula and cook the other side until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes more.
- Serve Warm: Remove the pancakes from the skillet and serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as syrup, honey, sliced bananas, or chocolate chips for added flavor.
Notes
- Do not overmix the batter to keep the pancakes fluffy and tender.
- Feel free to add chocolate chips or sliced bananas to the batter for extra flavor.
- Serve with syrup, honey, or your preferred toppings for a delicious breakfast experience.
